A dazzling global force to be reckoned with, in 2026 Metal sensations ππ€ππ˜πŒπ„π“π€π‹ are set to tour Australian arenas next March joined by Indian metal behemoths ππ‹πŽπŽπƒπ˜π–πŽπŽπƒ.
Hailing from Tokyo, ππ€ππ˜πŒπ„π“π€π‹'𝐒 origin story stems back to 2010, with the group forging their own unique sonic sound via heavy metal and Japanese idol cues. Swiftly evolving into a global sensation that has embraced genre-defiance, five studio albums, countless award wins, millions of global followers, tours around the world, chart success and collaborations with the likes of Tom Morello, Electric Callboy, Spiritbox and countless others, ππ€ππ˜πŒπ„π“π€π‹ continue to reinvent themselves and what it means to be a heavy band in the 21s century; a fact robustly on display with each new performance and release.
Most recently flexing their wares via their 2025 fifth studio album 𝑀𝐸𝑇𝐴𝐿 𝐹𝑂𝑅𝑇𝐻, which saw the group become the first all-Japanese act to reach the top 10 of the Billboard 200 and also contained a feature from ππ‹πŽπŽπƒπ˜π–πŽπŽπƒ on πΎπ‘œπ‘›! πΎπ‘œπ‘›! amongst other collabs, ππ€ππ˜πŒπ„π“π€π‹ have also spent the better part of 2025 on the road, from performing in Australia at Knotfest in February and March, through to headlining in Europe, the UK, North America, and, earlier this week, ticking off a special arena show in Mexico.
Closer to home, ππ€ππ˜πŒπ„π“π€π‹ made their first ever Australian live performance in 2018 at Good Things Festival, before returning in 2023 for their debut headline run, and enamouring once again earlier this year in a festival setting as part of Knotfest Australia. Renowned for their high-octane heaviness, infectious choreography and dazzling-yet-blistering charisma, ππ€ππ˜πŒπ„π“π€π‹'s earlier Aussie performances have relentlessly captivated crowds, with πΈπ‘£π‘’π‘Ÿπ‘π‘™π‘Žπ‘π‘˜ π‘€π‘’π‘‘π‘–π‘Ž dubbing their Brisbane headline show earlier this year "π‘Ž π‘šπ‘’π‘‘π‘–π‘π‘’π‘™π‘œπ‘’π‘ π‘™π‘¦ π‘π‘Ÿπ‘Žπ‘“π‘‘π‘’π‘‘ π‘“π‘’π‘ π‘–π‘œπ‘› π‘œπ‘“ π‘π‘Ÿπ‘’π‘π‘–π‘ π‘–π‘œπ‘› π‘Žπ‘›π‘‘ π‘π‘œπ‘€π‘’π‘Ÿ", while π‘‰π‘œπ‘™π‘’π‘šπ‘’ π‘€π‘’π‘‘π‘–π‘Ž enthused of the band's debut 2023 headline shows that "𝑖𝑑 π‘‘π‘Ÿπ‘Žπ‘›π‘ π‘π‘’π‘›π‘‘π‘’π‘‘ π‘π‘’π‘™π‘‘π‘’π‘Ÿπ‘Žπ‘™ π‘π‘œπ‘’π‘›π‘‘π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘–π‘’π‘ , π‘”π‘’π‘›π‘’π‘Ÿπ‘Žπ‘‘π‘–π‘œπ‘›π‘Žπ‘™ π‘π‘œπ‘’π‘›π‘‘π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘–π‘’π‘ , π‘Žπ‘›π‘‘ π‘”π‘’π‘›π‘Ÿπ‘’ π‘π‘œπ‘’π‘›π‘‘π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘–π‘’π‘ . π‘Šπ‘’ π‘’π‘›π‘‘π‘’π‘Ÿπ‘’π‘‘ π‘‘β„Žπ‘’ π‘šπ‘’π‘‘π‘Žπ‘™π‘£π‘’π‘Ÿπ‘ π‘’ π‘€π‘–π‘‘β„Ž π΅π΄π΅π‘Œπ‘€πΈπ‘‡π΄πΏ, π‘Žπ‘›π‘‘ π‘›π‘œπ‘›π‘’ π‘œπ‘“ 𝑒𝑠 π‘π‘Žπ‘šπ‘’ π‘œπ‘’π‘‘ π‘‘β„Žπ‘’ π‘ π‘Žπ‘šπ‘’."
Balancing guttural metal, Indian folk elements, hip hop hues and lyricism that span humour, culture and social issues, ππ‹πŽπŽπƒπ˜π–πŽπŽπƒ are a band like no other. An act who have proudly flown the flag for Indian metal increasingly on a global scale since first forming in 2016, becoming India's first metal act to chart on Billboard, the group initially gained traction via uploading YouTube cover songs before harnessing their signature sound, and ultimately beginning their journey towards world domination. Releasing a new album 𝑁𝑒 π·π‘’π‘™β„Žπ‘– earlier this year, ππ‹πŽπŽπƒπ˜π–πŽπŽπƒ gifted a searing love letter to Nu Delhi and its thriving music scene, with the album also boasting a memorable collab with ππ€ππ˜πŒπ„π“π€π‹ on the track π΅π‘’π‘˜β„Žπ‘Žπ‘’π‘“. With inescapably charismatic songs sung in Hindi, Punjabi and English, sold-out tours and performances at the likes of Hellfest and Download Festival, ππ‹πŽπŽπƒπ˜π–πŽπŽπƒ 's long-awaited journey to Australia in 2026 will be the stuff heavy music dreams are made of.
